The ambiguity is exactly why I asked for actual, real-world experiences in the first place (read Post #1). It seems people like to lecture and answer all kinds of questions, except not the specific...

Yeah I don't know how my original simple question devolved into "tank dumping" and "negative fauna behaviors". I never suggested "tank dumping". It's strange how forum threads seem to drift off...

Good afternoon,
That is totally acceptable to use your shower. No worries at all.

Take care!

Can you describe some of the experiences you've had related to this? When you have used an outdoor RV shower, what kinds of issues have you run into with campground management, if any?

Good idea, it's harmless water. But people around wouldn't know it's coming from the shower. Someone would probably freak out.

Something is going to do us all in, but it isn't going to be because the propane was on at the gas station. It does however make for a dramatic and scary news story, and people love those.

Yes sir they are. A pain for both owner and campground neighbor. Best to uninstall it, simplify, and camp without one.

Yes then there's the thing about being able to work in your van. Why? The idea of having a van is to get as far away from work as possible! The priorities are completely bizarre.

Not only is it ugly, but I don't understand the tiny window fad these days. Don't people want to see out, and let the warm sunshine in? I sure do. These things look like a prison cell with wheels....

Right - that makes sense. Your system looks very nice. I'm still using an old JRV "dummy light" system, but I don't like to rely on it alone.

Yes I thought the same thing - perhaps the power button is going bad. Although mine will reboot itself without any movement at all, just sitting on a table.
